Every time I pass 101st I always smile because I love thinking about my good times I had in my first job Grocery store. I always walked into work feeling like I was always needed in the grocery store. Every Saturday and Sunday I would go into work dressed in any old casual outfits I had, automatically start stocking shelves, sweeping floors, and helping costumers. Work was so hard that every time I got my paycheck I was excited to see that I had made a lot of income on my own. Man, I always love going to work and leaving early to go hang out, memories of my summer of 07was the greatest. Until the day my excitement was thrashed because my emotions changed when my step dad got injured and couldn't really move from the torn up Achilles Tenant he got at work from installing a A/C. My family at that time was struggling because as sadly to say we couldn’t depend on him to bring in money because he had to stay home. By that time I felt like my life was going into shambles because money wasn’t coming in and my mom was struggling to pay bills, buy grocery, and helping to raise my little sisters. It crushed me knowing I had to be a man/father by the age of 13. Every time I came back from work I was dead tired and to make matters worse I would help my mom with my sisters by making their food, cleaning and putting them to sleep. Although ever time my payments were made and done any little cash I had I would save to buy something I liked. Man, it was one of the most challenging and over barring experience in my life. Though times were hard and my recession was growing I still kept it going because I knew that deep inside of me, I can do it.
Now I when I look back at what my life use to be like as from a immature kid to a kid who started gaining maturity. Never really thought work was that serious until I became like a second parent then that when reality kicked in. This life changing experience has changed me miraculously so much physically and mentally, by making me wiser, mature and strong minded that I feel if I was to live on my own I know I would do fine. To me I feel proud, for the fact that I kept with my daily labor and never let anything stop me from what I was doing while my step father was out of commission. I learn that “when you’re young, thing aren’t as what they seem until you go through it your on self”.
Many times I wonder if this impact never transpired, would I still be the same. That’s a story I wonder and think about a lot on occasions, though the more I think about it I remind myself that it really doesn’t matter anymore because though it was tough but I still am glad I experienced it. This impact is what really made a difference in my life, I now know how reality is on the out of my parents wing.

college essay Its been long and crazy to see how the visions and struggles from my past have paid off in the long run. My life was no different but the guidance i had is what made it different, but like in everything i didn't realize it till a big outbreak occured in my life. What really revived me from my treacherous past was the experience i had in 2009. Out of all that I've learned, I've always kept one lesson in the back of my head and that is “that life is not what it seems because I'm the only one that can make life the way i want it to be” and its taken me so long time to learn that because my life has always been like one big ticking time bomb no matter what i did or said i felt it was always a step away from me exploding into a millions of pieces that i thought i would never have to deal with. But as always i never run from my problems always stood my grounds but life for me growing up wasn’t easy
